Before making this piece, I had gotten some new colors and made some smaller studies with them, and although I had been making the rectangular compositions so far, I wanted to do something with more expressive marks, outside of straight lines.

While working on this piece, I continued to strive for natural expressions, making whatever I purely wanted to make.

I couldn't help myself from creating a border, because I just feel it helps bring the piece together.

In the main body, a beautiful gradient is produced by a beautiful mix of colors, with a backdrop of texture from layers below.
